Re: 1160 Roll paper feed help!

2002-01-27 by tomoc

Don't 'cha just feel like "I love Lucy" on the candy conveyor 
sometimes???

I was pretty excited when I ordered a roll holder for my 1270... At 
least I only had the problem with relatively cheap Epson paper... I 
wound up pulling the plug like you did and then cut the paper and let 
it run through (I was SURE it would print some binary number code all 
over it if I let the whole thing go through).

If you can guess or measure how much to cut off, you can shoot it 
through and then trim it up and feed it like a large sheet? That's 
what I wound up doing and it was actually OK.

Good luck
